Deluxe Turntable Scrabble

For everyone trying to replace the hard plastic spinning model from 20 years ago... Stay away from this! It is cheap and cheesy. The board is made of molded cardboard with a plastic film on top. It's not even well connected to the frame, which is a cheap replica of the orignial. I got this as a gift for my mother and waas truly shocked at the poor quality. Buyer Beware!!!!

I did not receive the game I had ordered as above. The game I did receive was the Diamond Edition, which I did see in the stores and it was much less than I actually payed by mail. The deluxe game was to be a replacement for my original deluxe scrabble which is 40 years old. I am disappointed that I did not receive the one sent for. I even tried at our local toy store and they did not carry it, so I was happy to see it on line....wrong one though.

I enjoyed this new deluxe board because of its ability to rotate. However, I took it to a friend's house and left it in the car for about 2 hours the result was not pretty. The cheap overlay that forms the surface that you play on melted and warped. Despite attempts to reshape it I had to trash the whole set. For fifty dollars I think the manufacter could have made a product that stood up to 80 degree day.

My husband got this for my birthday. I have the old deluxe edition, but the turntable doesn't turn freely anymore, so I wanted a new one. I love playing scrabble and have been playing for more than 40 years! When I opened the box I couldn't believe the poor quality of this game. I can't imagine this holding up for more than a few games. The board is flimsy cardboard mounted on a cheap plastic grid, and the letter trays are the poorest quality plastic I've ever seen in a game! What happened to you MB to produce this horrible quality product and then sell for such an exorbitant price? You get what you pay for certainly does not apply to this item. Stick to the cheap model and you are more likely to get something usable. I hope I am able to return this item because I sure don't want it.

I purchase the Deluxe Turntable Scrabble as a gift for my birthday.
It is one of the best educational game I have every played.
I am thinking of purchasing some more, as gift to my families and friends.
I would recommend that every house should have one.
